Karen Douglas, Practice Development & Positive Behaviour Support Manager Win's July's award!   Karen was nominated by registered manager of National Care Group’s Affinity Supporting People North West, Louise Petre.   Louise, and the team at Affinity are so grateful for the learnings they have taken from Karen over the past few months. She has presented lots of ideas to introduce to the services to improve the lives of the people we support.   What really blew Louise and team away was that Karen delivered a beautiful fidget mat she had personally created for a person we support who has been diagnosed with early onset dementia. Karen had put a tremendous amount of effort into the mat and all in her own time.   Karen is a shining example of a colleague that goes above and beyond and we are all grateful for the contribution she makes.   Well done, Karen!   Five other National Care Group colleagues or teams were nominated for their outstanding achievements in July.
